Well we can still use the dodgy right? Like say we have it on our computer we can post it on PBN right? I'm so sad the almighty dodgy is gone and I hope you dont get sued for $150,000 lol thats a ****ing joke for just a little smiley that was made from what ever other smily.

No, if you post even a single dodgy you will be immediately sued, that is why nobody in this thread has posted one yet.

And this is still all a joke, I can't believe y'all are actually convinced, some of you guys must be total dumb-****s, but I can guarantee it is coming back.

For some reason I doubt that it will come back at the end of the month. Here is how I see it:

Tony decided that an awesome April Fool's joke would be to deceive PBNation's members in believing that the dodgy is gone forever, removing it on April Fool's Day. Everyone knew that it was a joke, an unsuccessful joke at that, so the joke continued, either because it had no success and everyone caught on, so Tony decided to keep it going, thus trying to further deceive us, or it was part of the plan/joke all along, so that nobody would think it was a joke. Now Tony has everybody on the edge of their seats expecting the dodgy to come back (at the end of April), and if/when it doesn't, many people will think that it is indeed owned by Charles Frasier, which would make Tony successful, who would maybe bring it back soon, maybe not. Tony probably realized that removing the dodgy was a bad idea, since everyone knew what day it was posted on and because Charles Frasier of Smilies Direct was obviously a fake, so he is extending the disappearance of the dodgy which is the only way that he could further get everyone to not think it is a joke. I am only using Tony's name, but there very well could be others involved.

And for all those people who are buying this ****, here are a few reasons why this is obviously fake:

Charles Frasier has NO proof that he owns the dodgy, all that this fictional character has to say is "my copyrighted... Work, [was] first published in 1999." If this was a truly a professional business matter, proof of this copyright would have been provided

Tony, or any mod for that matter, hasn't even posted in this thread to defend the fact that it is not a joke, since they have no proof

Smilies Direct does not exist, after much searching it is yet to be found. If Tony truly wanted us to believe that they are responsible he would provide proof, like a website. I know that he has claimed to not be able to find anything on this "Frasier character," but that is obviously a lie

Countless posts in this thread contain dodgy .gifs, and Tony has not told anyone to stop the use of it since it still would be stealing the image and it would be on PBNation

The dodgy still exists in many other online forums

It was posted on April Fool's day

All those that still believe that Charles Frasier owns the rights to the dodgy, you must be the biggest ****tard this world has ever seen.

For the return of the dodgy, I would assume that after enough people were convinced he would bring it back (thinking that he successfully tricked us), or he might bring it back if we all persist that we know it is indeed a joke, no matter how long it lasts, be it one month, 5 months, or a year.

"Hello? Anybody home? Hello, Mr. Gopher! It's me, Mr. Squirrel. Just a harmless squirrel. Not a plastic explosive or anything. Nothing to be worried about. I'm just here to make your last hours on earth as peaceful as possible. Don't mind this. This is doctor's orders. You don't mind if I just pop in there for a few laughs? That's right. Or in the words of Jean-Paul Sartre: "Au revoir, gopher." This is going to be sweet"

actually someone pulled the ****ing wool over everyones eyes... you cannot sue for copyright infringment if the work isnt copyrighted.... there isnt a little ****in C with a circle around it so Im calling bull****. It was posted on the internet to be used by forums and this isnt the only forum to use it. This isnt even the biggest forum to use it and I call bull****.

This is either the mods being dicks and jsut wanting to piss off pbn'ers or some kid making the mods look like *******es... either way someone is sitting back and laughing their *** off...

i think he might say your banned for that... good post though, but callin a mod a ***** never works

Yea I thought about that, but this is just a name a made while my other is banned, (which I just realized is no longer banned) so I could care less if I got banned. Actually, I would rather get banned, because that would just show that Tony actually is reading this thread (laughing at some of the ignorance) but won't post.

I think everyone on PBN needs to find out the truth already. All it takes is a search, or a request for contact info on this fake "Charles Frasier". Props on mispelling and using the name of a famous book author..

The description of infringement under "17 U.S.C. Section 101" is also really inadequate and vague. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. There would be a more precise description if this were real.
